Oshiya Node Operator Get Started
TL;DR
A testnet version of the Oshiya mining service is live
Earn rewards for Protocol mining
Introduction
The testnet Panther Protocol dApp is supported by testnet Oshiya node Operators, known as zMiners. Anyone can run Oshiya and earn rewards for contributing to the Protocol.
Prerequisites
Ethereum-compatible EOA (externally-owned account, i.e. wallet)
MetaMask is recommended
Spare CPU
Get started
Option A: Docker image
Follow the Get Started instructions in Docker.
Option B: dApp
The interface provides:
The interval field. zMiners may adjust the cycle length by updating this variable.
Private key refers to the EAO to which rewards will be sent. Either enter the Ethereum account address or use the Connect MetaMask button.
RPC endpoint.
During testnet, users may enter any viable Mumbai RPC endpoint available from Chainlist.
Start/Stop mining.
Note that the current session will complete and Oshiya will terminate on Stop.
Mining attempt outcomes.
Gotchas
While you may run multiple instances of Oshiya, remember that the computational load will increase, and there is a race condition against other miners
The dApp provides a very basic interface for community members interested in earning when the Protocol is released. Should tech-savvy operators make their own optimizations, zMining via the app may eventually become unviable.
